NATHAN.

Saladin wants me?
He will be curious to see what wares,
Precious, or new, I brought with me from Persia.
Say there is nothing hardly yet unpacked.

DAYA.

No, no: ’tis not to look at anything.
He wants to speak to you, to you in person,
And orders you to come as soon as may be.

NATHAN.

I’ll go—return.

DAYA.

Knight, take it not amiss;
But we were so alarmed for what the sultan
Could have in view.

NATHAN.

That I shall soon discover.
